Bullshyt.
The Jazz/Dixieland/Blues of the 20's and 30's were every bit as innovative, unconventional and controversial as the Rock-n-Roll of Baby Boomers.
It's just that Boomers can't conceive the fact that they weren't the "first" in something.
Elvis is so dial up most over rated dead guy alive
Yeah Elvis! You are still THE King in my book.
Happy Birthday, Elvis!
My college radio station has a local music show on Sunday mornings and at 11 am, the host has a moment of silence to
remember the troops, and then he plays a patriotic song
afterwards. I filled in for the show today (the host was
at the Patriots' game last night...) I did the moment
of silence/patriotic song and I chose Elvis' "An American
Trilogy" from the "Second to None" album. A medley
of "Battle Hymn of the Republic", "All My Trials", and
"Dixie".
And I visited the man's house earlier this year.
Elvis is Everywhere, Elvis is everything
Elvis is everybody, Elvis is still the king
